1/28. A serious issue has been bubbling under the surface at #COP27 and it's reaching boiling point as we near the final plenary: the importance of the Convention(@UNFCCC) and its ongoing role in @UN #ClimateChange negotiations. Here is why this is important for #LossAndDamage.🧵
2/28. In the informal stocktaking plenary last night, we heard many interventions from developing country Parties highlighting their concerns regarding efforts by developed country Parties to remove references to the principles of the Convention across all thematic areas.
3/28. Under the Convention, Parties agree to protect the climate system “on the basis of equity and in accordance with their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities (CBDR-RC).” These are important agreed principles that must be preserved.

1/13.📜NEW BLOG: In a new blog for @LossandDamage, @jar_climate asks "Is the #GlobalShield about progress or distraction?" on a political decision to deliver a #LossAndDamage finance facility at #COP27?

2/13. As the 2nd week of #COP27 starts the BIG question is: will it establish a #LossAndDamage Finance Facility or will rich countries continue to delay & push responsibility onto the #ClimateVulnerable by pushing non-transformative solutions like insurance? Image

Aujourd’hui, s’ouvre la #BonnClimateConference.

Quasi-absentes des médias, ces négociations #climat vont aborder des sujets cruciaux comme les pertes et dommages. Ils ont créé le buzz à la #COP26 mais de quoi s'agit-il? Quelles attentes d'ici à la #COP27 ?
Réponses dans ce 🧵👇
1/13 Depuis + de 30 ans, les petits Etats insulaires se battent pour que les pays membres de la @UNFCCC admettent que réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre ou s’adapter ne sera pas suffisant. Certains impacts climatiques, les pertes et dommages, sont déjà irréversibles.
2/13 Ils peuvent être soit la conséquence de phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes tels que des ouragans, cyclones, inondations ou feux de forêt, soit le résultat de phénomènes à occurrence lente comme la montée du niveau des mers, l’érosion côtière ou les sécheresses.
